Is it? How so? Seems to me pretty easy to be and remain willing indefinitely.

>"Utopism is an abstraction" No, utopism is an instinct. Oh, and what does "and nothing more" mean/entail here?

Your words are decoupled from any relation to experience. You think you can argue by constructing syntactically correct but semantically empty sentences that reverse your opponent's sentences but without corresponding to anything. Might as well slam down an uno reverse card.
